Lockerbie Central UMC a historic community doing church in a
new way. We are re- imagining what is means to be church. Our home
is in a beautiful historic building built by the church in the late
1800s that we want lots of people to enjoy. To make this possible,
we created Earth House Collective in partnership with the community
as a way to extend radical hospitality in downtown Indianapolis.
Over the past three years Earth House has grown into one of the
best places in Indy to experience art, music, culture, healthy
food, a great cup of fair trade coffee, and a community in action.
All this is happening in a place of worship and spiritual
growth.

New Day Communities are satellite congregations anchored in
United Methodist churches. The lead teams are bi-vocational and do
not receive any compensation for their pastoral service to New Day,
which helps maximize missional outreach and minimize our internal
costs. We are a pioneering ministry affirmed by the North Texas
Conference of the United Methodist Church, the Alaska Missionary
Conference and a number of local congregations and agencies.
